ANN SOFIE BACK SHIPMENT 1
Our first shipment of Ann Sofie Back FW08 arrived a few days ago. There were two distinct themes: Things cut to a dramatic angle, and underwear as design embellishment.
FACE
(Reflector Face)
FACE by DAVID TORO & SOLOMON CHASE
Here are a few things that make me very excited:
1) When people I know make interesting artwork
2) When people I know get good publicity
3) When I see work that straddles the borders of art, fashion, and performance
4) When artwork makes me want to giggle a little bit
All four of these excitement-triggers were set off when I saw the FACE feature on DAZED DIGITAL. I knew David a little bit when he lived in San Francisco a few years ago. I remember one performance piece he did at Jacob's epic Pee Parties, and I also recall a few drawings but after that when he moved to New York, I lost touch of his work.
Disclaimer aside, I completely love FACE.

(Bindi Face)
"FACE explores temporary facial adornment as practical accessories and self-expression. We see the face as the most important part of our outer selves, the first part noticed, the most judged. We want to transform it unlike what is done with makeup or even cosmetic surgery. Our aim with FACE is to experiment with a paradox of utility and aesthetics, and develop products ranging from functional and wearable to extravagant and conceptual"

So yeah. This is my third post today. Do I post too often? My semester begins again in one week, which means less time out and about, and less time at Harputs Market. Probably more photos of me home alone!
DOLORES PARK PERFECTION
For those who have never ventured to San Francisco, this is Dolores Park. It's kind of like a beach, kind of like Mecca on Sundays. A big communal watering hole for social creatures. You are sure to run into everyone you have been meaning or wanting to see for the last month or two but never called. The weather in SF is never predictable, but its always warmer on Sundays.
